Eyewitness Identification Accuracy and Response Latency: The Unruly 10-12-Second Rule.

Data are reported from 3,213 research eyewitnesses confirming that accurate eyewitness identifications from lineups are made faster than are inaccurate identifications. However, consistent with predictions from the recognition and search literatures, the authors did not find support for the "10-12-s rule" in which lineup identifications faster than 10-12 s maximally discriminate between accurate and inaccurate identifications (D. Dunning & S. Perretta, 2002). Instead, the time frame that proved most discriminating was highly variable across experiments, ranging from 5 s to 29 s, and the maximally discriminating time was often unimpressive in its ability to sort accurate from inaccurate identifications. The authors suggest several factors that are likely to moderate the 10-12-s rule. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved)     

基于P2P网络的大规模视频直播系统

介绍了一种基于P2P(peer-to-peer)网络的大规模视频直播系统Gridmedia.该系统采用Gossip协议构建无结构的应用层覆盖网络,每个节点可以独立地选择自己的伙伴节点.在覆盖网络上,每个节点通过一种推拉结合的流传输策略从邻居节点获取数据.与DONet中的纯拉策略相比,推拉结合策略大幅度减小了终端用户观看视频的延迟,并有效降低了直播系统的控制开销.PlanetLab上的大量实验充分表明了该策略的有效性.Gridmedia的原型系统通过300Kbps的视频码流对2005年春节联欢晚会进行了全球互联网直播.晚会期间,全球范围内有超过500 000人次通过系统观看了直播,最高在线人数达到了15 239人,充分验证了系统的性能.

Development of a high curing latency no-flow underfill with self-fluxing ability for lead-free solder interconnects

Tin-lead solders have been used as joining materials in the electronics industry for many years. As present there are great concerns about the potential harm of lead-containing solders to human beings and many efforts have been made to remove the lead from the electronics packages. However, there is no no-flow underfill currently on the market that is compatible with the lead-free solder. In this study, a new no-flow underfill for flip chip bumped with lead-free solder has been developed based on a curing agent and catalysts with high curing latency. The curing agent itself has the fluxing ability, so the need of extra flux is eliminated. Compared with the underfill for lead-containing solder, the new underfill has a higher curing temperature, compatible with the melting profile of lead-free solder. The wetting compatibility of the underfill with the lead-free solder has been studied by wetting experiments. The material properties of the underfill have been investigated using DSC, TGA, TMA and DMA. The results show that the newly developed underfill material has the potential to be used in lead-free interconnects.     

分离通路浮点乘加器设计与实现

针对传统浮点融合乘加器会增加独立浮点加减法、乘法等运算延迟的缺点,首先设计并实现了一种分离通路浮点乘加器SPFMA,通过分离乘法和加法通路,在保持融合乘加运算延迟6拍延迟不变的情况下,将独立乘法和加法等运算延迟由6拍减为4拍,克服了传统融合乘加器的缺点。然后经专用工艺单元库逻辑综合评估,SPFMA可工作在1.2GHz以上,面积60779.44um²。最后在硬件仿真加速器平台上运行SPEC CPU2000浮点测试课题对其进行性能评估,结果表明所有浮点课题性能均有所提高,最大提高5.25％,平均提高1.61％,证明SPFMA可进一步提高浮点性能。     

The specific-word frequency effect: Implications for the representation of homophones in speech production.

In a series of experiments, the authors investigated whether naming latencies for homophones (e.g., /nΛn/) are a function of specific-word frequency (i.e., the frequency of nun) or a function of cumulative homophone frequency (i.e., the sum of the frequencies of nun and none). Specific-word but not cumulative-homophone frequency affected picture-naming latencies. This result was obtained in 2 languages (English and Chinese). An analogous finding was obtained in a translation task, where bilingual speakers produced the English names of visually presented Spanish words. Control experiments ruled out that these results are an artifact of orthographic or articulatory factors, or of visual recognition. The results argue against the hypothesis that homophones share a common word-form representation, and support instead a model in which homophones have fully independent representations.

Tutorial on the importance of color in language and culture

This tutorial examines how people of various cultures classify different colors as belonging together under common color names. This is addressed by examining Berlin and Kay's (1969) hierarchical classification scheme. Special attention is paid to the additional five (derived) color terms (i.e., brown, purple, pink, orange, and gray) that must be added to Herings' six primaries (i.e., white, black, red, green, yellow, blue) to constitute Berlin and Kay's basic color terms. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

A cross‐cultural colour‐naming study. Part III—A colour‐naming model

A colour‐naming model was developed to categorize volumes for each of the 11 basic names in CIELAB colour space. This was tested with three different sets of data for two languages (English and Mandarin), derived from extensive colour categorization experiments. The performance of the model in predicting colour names was satisfactory, with an average prediction error of 8.3%. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Col Res Appl, 26, 270–277, 2001

Selective attention and distractor frequency in naming performance: Comment on Dhooge and Hartsuiker (2010).

E. Dhooge and R. J. Hartsuiker (2010) reported experiments showing that picture naming takes longer with low- than high-frequency distractor words, replicating M. Miozzo and A. Caramazza (2003). In addition, they showed that this distractor-frequency effect disappears when distractors are masked or preexposed. These findings were taken to refute models like WEAVER++ (A. Roelofs, 2003) in which words are selected by competition. However, Dhooge and Hartsuiker do not take into account that according to this model, picture-word interference taps not only into word production but also into attentional processes. Here, the authors indicate that WEAVER++ contains an attentional mechanism that accounts for the distractor-frequency effect (A. Roelofs, 2005). Moreover, the authors demonstrate that the model accounts for the influence of masking and preexposure, and does so in a simpler way than the response exclusion through self-monitoring account advanced by Dhooge and Hartsuiker.
